A fair bit of detective work would be required to source further details of the fate and whereabouts of the car(s). Unfortunately, Bill is no longer with us, but I wonder if WA residents could help ? We have Tim (I think) in WA, but topklasse is not his favourite hideaway. How about NAB, our...

Well, I certainly went ahead with the replacement of all of my doors from a Silver Green that I dismantled, and I also fitted all of the glass from that car to my Gleaming Beauty. Talking about tints from manufacturers or otherwise, when Julie bought her Honda Jazz in 2013 (yes, eight years...

This one, with its blue leather, may perhaps be a "cleaner" interior than the Bordeaux Red Mark III that I have commented upon, yet looking at the replacement carpet, the gearbox tunnel carpeting is very plain and lacks that little square moulded section on top of the gearbox tunnel when it came...

The The interior really illustrates the hard life it has had. One could say it is probably typical of a well used car, with an interior that's now forty five years old. Granted, there is just about "very little" that one could fault with the exterior and engine bay appearance of the car...

Not replying to any of the posts submitted - not right now, anyway. However, this has got to be just about the find of the week, even at the advertised price. It's got to be one of the very best Coupes you are ever likely to see. It's almost brand new looking, or it has been restored to an...

Unfortunately, the only 126 items I have are a 6 cylinder and 8 cylinder Ignition Modules. Plenty of w116 spares, but they are of no use to you. I still have a tinted rear screen for a 450SL that you already know about. I have been reluctant to put it on ebay in view of your previous interest...

Well C107, that's quite amazing. I found that the Citroen was peaking out at about 150 km/h, and we were urging it along at that speed - you know, when you're riding a horse and you're geeing it up. There was very little left in the Citroen. The turbo version was considerably more sprightly, but...

That last post was back in 2008 and I certainly have to eat my words. Oz country nowadays is home to many 2.2 litre Turbocharged Diesels fitted to many SUVs, particularly the Koreans. In fact, a number of SUVs and Sedans have reduced capacity back to 1.5 and 1.0-1.1cc turbocharged Diesels...

Attached please find an excellent expose of the 6.9's Hydraulic Suspension set-up. Regards Styria

Well, we needed to say RIP to Tarek in Egypt who was a wonderful contributor to TK with a lot of panache, but unfortunately it was heart problems that resulted in his death. Even nowadays, I still think of him and his beautiful command of the English language. Regards Styria

So, what's next ? Not too much I am afraid. It was one of those days when it was difficult to take photos, but don't ask me why. I was about head off home, but then decided that I might as well utilize my time a bit better and explore what is really quite a magnificent, natural complex. Trees...

Well, well, well - in no particular order. Picture of Gleaming Beauty on the morning before I set off for St. Ives. I am still quite smitten by the looks and even colour scheme of Gleaming Beauty She has hardly turned a wheel since last June, Inspection date. Next we have a beautifully presented...

Well thank you, some of the doubles have disappeared - I think. Obviously, I took some other pics as well, and hopefully I will be able to post them Where I have not mastered the procedure is when I try and comment on EACH photo. So anyway, let's try.

My apologies for doubling up on some of these pictures. Obviously I haven't gotten the hang of the finer points when submitting pics., but I will get there IN THE NOT TOO DISTANT FUTURE. Regards Styria

The first car to attract my attention was a beautifully kept (partially restored) NSU RO80. This particular car still spotted a Wankel Engine, and those engines were responsible for the demise, and eventual take over, by Audi. Warranty claims simply sent them broke. I have driven anRO80 many...

It was a very busy and rather well attended event. My initial impression related to finding a parking spot and it didn't take me long to arrive at the decision that for me this would be "first and last time". However, one should not be so hasty in decision making. What I would change is my time...

It will be good to see you guys. Regards Styria

Hi Patrick, I haven't mentioned your name in regards to tomorrow's event at St. Ives Showground. I want you to know that it was merely an oversight as I would really love to meet you at some time. Perhaps tomorrow could be the day ? I hope you can make it, but I do appreciate the distance...

I realize he is not universally liked, and perhaps not respected. However, that being the case, should we ignore that his videos are the most widely watched on the Internet - I am talking about "Repair" and Assessment videos. His expose of cars featured in the video feature here is, in my...
